දෛනික ඉංග්‍රීසි | Daily English | The Story Of The Last Man - P13

The Story Of The Last Man*
A thriller, where what you see is not what you get!

*This is from a movie script that was never produced due incomplete work. Maybe now we can complete it and use to learn English in the same time. 
Part 13


They finished the meeting successfully and rest of the day was busy too as usual.

John used to go to one particular restaurant for dinner during weekdays and it was like a habit. The place was bit dark and very peaceful, may be that is why he liked it. It was a quite relief from his busy work hours.
He finished his dinner and thought to take a little walk. He liked to take long walks in the dark after work, it kind of helped him to relax and burn some calories.

While he was walking, he started to the think about the mysterious old man, Morgan again, and in a while he saw Morgan sitting by the side of the sidewalk, the same way as he saw him last morning in his dream. John said “hey” and started to walk towards him. Morgan didn’t open his eyes till John came to him.

John started talking as soon as he came closer. “Hey, are you Morgan Patrick?”

“”Yes, John, you can call me Morgan.”

“Jesus, I know you man. I,.. we met last night in a dream, I mean technically today morning,... but how can it be possible?
I went to the cafe today morning as well but they don’t know you. You came to me in my dream but,.. but there is no way that you know about it. It’s impossible because it was only a dream.” John paused for few seconds and he looked really confused.

Then he asked “Well, you don’t know about that dream or our meeting in that dream, right?”

Part 12


“Of cause, we just got to know each other.” Dan said.

“Excellent.” He looked at everyone and then turned back to Dan.

“Dan Smith is the founder of XL Systems. He is the brain behind everything. You all had some questions about Workforce Management and he is the best guy to answer your questions, because he designed this system originally to manage his own staff.”

John jumped directly to the topic as time was very limited and paused for questions.

“Yes John, and Dan, it is our pleasure to meet you indeed and we appreciate your time. Please allow me to ask the first question,..” One gentleman asked permission for the first question while everyone seemed very interested.

“We started using WFM last month and my team is still struggling with it. It seems that staff doesn't understand it or doesn’t want to understand it.”

Dan smiled and asked back “Do you all have the same problem?”

“Yes, more or less”. Everyone agreed.

John was a natural salesperson and he didn’t like the vibe here. He said “Dan, they all had the same problem and that is why I categorized and got them all in one meeting so that you all can save time.” He actually said it to the clients but not to Dan.

Part 11


John’s company worked with small and medium businesses where they provided productivity solutions to them. One solution was for the sales staff which was known as Technical Sales Team or TST and the other was for operational staff known as Workforce Management or WFM. Both tools increased productivity of staff considerably but no one believed in them till the system was fully tested.

At that time, people were not yet ready to believe in productivity softwares. They believed that softwares were just for data management and that was it. If they wanted to increase productivity, they wanted to hire productivity consultants but not buy softwares.

After his sales meetings, he went to the next meeting room where six others were already waiting for him. But he John was not late, they were just early.

“Good morning ladies and gentlemen” John greeted and welcomed the visitors. Then he turned to his right side and said “Dan, these ladies and gentlemen are our client who you already know by the name. Have you introduced yourselves?” He asked from everyone with a smile.

Part 10


Staff was listening as they always did when John talked. John was a nice guy but he wanted everything in order and most of all the staff knew that everything John talked in the mornings were targeted nothing but closing sales.

“Then what is XL Systems? It is a tool that improves the sales of your business clients. It’s like a gun that you use to kill and you do not care what it is made of as long as it gets the job done.
XL Systems is not a software but a tool that increases your sales. That is what we promise our clients and that is what we deliver to them.

Our promise is that we will improve your sales by 50% if you follow our instructions properly. And that is the promise that we make.

Now, do not confuse your clients by saying that you are there to sell a software. They will just show you the door as there are thousands of softwares to buy.
And when you make that kind of a lousy first impression, you are as good as a losing the sale before even pitching your client.

Instead make a good first impression and get the attention of your client by saying that ‘I am a Sales Consultant and I can Improve your Sales by at least 30%.’

50% may sound too good to be true at the first pitch and that is why we say ‘at least 30%’.

Now that’s all for today and remember we are sales consultants but not software salesmen.”

John ended his speech for the day and turned to other discussions.

දෛනික ඉංග්‍රීසි | Daily English | The Story Of The Last Man - P9

The Story Of The Last Man*
A thriller, where what you see is not what you get!

Part 9


Narrator:
John needed all his team players to be seated at the sales floor by 9AM every morning. He didn’t care of client meeting or any other bullshit. He just needed them there on time.

Sales floor was a big conference room which was the office of the entire sales team and no one had cubicles. Not even John who was the manager and the leader. The concept of no cubicle for sales staff was brought XL System by John himself with his promotion as the team manager. Originally, everyone hated it while the directors loved it. It was very cost effective for the company and very productive as everyone is always under watch.

Why previous managers never thought of it? Maybe they were not smart enough to work out this highly productive work culture or maybe they just wanted to waste their time in big offices and brag about it.
But John, he never bragged anything but he was the youngest team manager and the most productive man in the history of XL Systems.

As he came to the room, everyone said “Good morning John”. John went to his seat and looked at them.

“Morning,... Every client believes in what they were told to believe. If you tell your clients that XL Systems is a software, they will believe it. That’s why you should never say so.”
